ADHD: Impact Report

October 2017

A Lifetime Lost or a Lifetime Report

This report have been sent to all MP’s and CCG lead commissioners. Please feel free to download and share with anyone you feel should have a copy.

The stigma surrounding ADHD has resulted in a systematic neglect of mental health services for those with this condition and services are further threatened at a time of financial restraint in public services. We believe this continuing stigma influences commissioning choices that are made by commissioners, who typically have no clinical experience or knowledge of ADHD and the mental health needs of ADHD patients.

Getting Involved

We ask if you could all join us in writing to your MP and ask them what they will be doing about the above report that they have received. Below is an example letter that you can use or write your own.
